Problems solved by technology

When the pilot signal and the simulated pilot signal are added in-phase during the repeated channel estimation process, these signals are added in equal proportions each time, therefore, the influence of errors in the simulated pilot signal has a significant effect on the number of repetitions of the channel estimation Very strong in less stages, resulting in poor reception quality
[0028] And, when the amount of phase rotation due to fading is large in the process of inserting the pilot signal, it is impossible to obtain a high-precision channel estimation value unless the influence of K slots before and after the phase change is reduced
[0029] Moreover, in the repeated channel estimation process,...

Abstract

When carrying out a weighted addition on the in-phase added values of pilot signals and simulated pilot signals of the data section about the nth slot, the channel estimation circuit 104 controls the weighting factors according to the number of iterations of channel estimation. That is, the channel estimation circuit (104) carries out channel estimation by decreasing weights of simulated pilot signals in addition to pilot signals in a stage in which the number of iterations is small and by increasing weights of simulated pilot signals in addition to pilot signals in a stage in which the number of iterations is large. In iterative channel estimation, this makes it possible to improve the accuracy of channel estimation in the initial stage and carry out high accuracy channel estimation with a small number of iterations of recursive channel estimation.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a radio receiving apparatus and method for use in a digital radio communication system. Background technique [0002] (Prior Art 1) [0003] Traditionally, according to a pilot interpolation type communication system (a system that periodically inserts a pilot signal (a known signal) into an information signal), the method of using multiple pilot blocks for channel estimation was proposed by Ando et al. (RCS96-72 "Channel Estimation Scheme using Plural Pilot Blocks for DS-CDMA Mobile Radio"). Refer below figure 1 and figure 2 This channel estimation method will be described. [0004] figure 1 The time slot format used in a conventional pilot interpolation type communication system is shown. In this figure, one slot consists of a control section storing pilot signals and control signals and a data section multiplexing therewith storing data, and two slots before and after a slot n in the center are shown. time sl...
